Anyone else able to confirm?

JAWS 11 (latest)
MS-Word 2007
XP Pro 32-bit

In MS-word 2007 using the find dialog. To get to special characters like 
paragraph marks, tab characters,etc. it's necessary to first use Alt-m to 
allow for more options. Then use Alt-e to open a list of these special 
characters.

JAWS 11 - When the special characte list opens, the entire dialog shuts down 
and I'm placed bakc in the document.

JAWS 9 - Works just fine.
